Dealing with Consequences When Friends Become Enemies
This is a question everybody has to deal with in one point of their life or another. What do you do when best friends become enemies? This is always something which you don’t normally think about. This is one of the harsh realities of the world today. Friends turn into enemies in the blink of an eye for various reasons. In each case it is essential to know your own priorities before trying to set someone else straight. Sometimes this happens because negative feelings have been festering for a long time but for one reason or the other you or your friend has been downplaying it.
Materialism
Sometimes friends become enemies very simply over materialistic items. You may be thinking that your friendship is beyond materialistic things. You might not be giving a certain possession such as as Premium Jackets or jewellery the same amount of importance or consideration as your friend. This factor will be especially highlighted if you have a passion for fantasy like the character Jeffrey Dean Morgan in the Negan leather jacket that cherishes ideals greater than possessions. Your friend may not share your passion for ideals and may be more interested material possessions. They might have special intentions for that possession of which you have no knowledge. The important thing is noticing and realizing that this friend has given this thing or item more importance than the relationship of friendship.
Mutual Relationships
It is very common for your best friend to have the same enemies and friends circle as you. Over the course of time people change and so do their preferences. The man in the Jon Snow jacket and Ygritte from the Game of Thrones are getting married in real life. The sequence of events in the series has brought about the development of their matrimony. Similarly a close friend may secretly be meeting up with your best friend to seal the deal. Initially this might happen accidentally when you have left a conversation. The person now has an opportunity to say what’s on their mind to impress your best friend. Your best friend now has two options. One, to stand up for you in your absence and let it be known that they will support you and the relationship, regardless of your presence or absence. Two, to let bygones be bygones and join your enemies in badmouthing you. The second is what happens more often than not, especially when we least expect it. Your best friend has had enough of sticking up for you and now joins the crowd to becoming one of your arch enemies.
Exchanging Partners
This is one of the most common reasons why some of your best friends can become your worst enemies. Your friend secretly admires your partner (boyfriend or girlfriend). They might be using you to get closer to your partner. Your friend might be using you to find out your partner’s likes and dislikes. Finally one day comes when your friend steps up their game and becomes your partner’s significant other to replace you. You never saw it coming but it has happened. Do you blame your partner, do you blame your best friend or do you blame yourself? Soul searching, now you seem to wonder what could have been and what should have been. Know that just by thinking about it over and over again will not make you feel better when you feel let down.
One of the best ways to face these circumstances is to indulge in a pastime. Do something which you feel passionate about, even if it is playing computer games or enjoying long walks in the park. The right people will find their way to you.
